Oh Nashville, I am on my knees; Oh Nashville, I am begging you please...

Apologies to Sarah Buxton for lifting some of the lyrics to Stupid Boy. But after reading about, and then viewing Keith's nauseating performance at his number one party for Sweeet Thang, I had to wonder yet again why does he do this to himself? First, to get all of you up to speed, Keith had a party on Monday, March 16, to celebrate the single going to number one and all of his million sellers. He had a few before Nicole; actually the majority of them were before her. But that fact didn't stop Keith from going on and on about his muse, his everything, the love of his life. Sorry, baby, still not buying it. Apparently, Keith is also having an affair with the City of Nashville.

Did you know that everything that is good for Keith Urban is because of Nashville? He became a success in his artistic field. He became a father. He can live like a normal person. Well, he isn't a normal person. Normal people don't have drivers and cars available to them. Normal people don't have a Bentley nor a private jet parked at the local airport. And while Keith and Nicole are taking the little girl to music class or going to dinner or a movie, they aren't normal people. They are famous and they stand out like a sore thumb. Kidman at the Roller Derby on March 14 is a great example of that. They are like freaks. Don't buy the normal life stuff Nashville; they are using the city just as they used their fans over the years, to help create and maintain an image; an image that is about as real as LeAnn Rimes’ marriage. They are using Nashville to help make them richer and more famous so that they can eventually leave and move on to their next big high. Remember a long time ago we talked about Keith Urban and his addiction to fame. Going from drug to drug seems to be Keith's pattern.

As for those rumors that Kidman is trying to get a movie made with her and Keith? She has dangled that carrot before in front of him. I'm sure he loves the idea that the little farm boy can grow up to be a Hollyweird actor. Except now he says in an interview (new or old is unknown) that he doesn't want to act. Perhaps because the last acting Urban did was last Monday night in front of a large group of people to proclaim his love for a city and a woman. It’s too bad that he didn't convince anyone that he was sincere about either. Let’s see how he does on tour this summer when he has to act in front of thousands of regular ole’ people.

I truly believe that the orb can expect a career in shambles as kidman's career is in at this moment...from the news piece of the last thread of kidman in India to shoot an "epic" commercial...for "Ginger ale"...I am in stitches over kidman's career trajectory! From film actor, to now commercial shiller...and get the ridiculous downward spiral of the the ads...from Chanel...to nintendo gameboys...to now ginger ale! HA! For her next ad...no doubt directed by the Bazz...she will be reunited with Hugh Jackman and he will play "jackman In the box"...and it will actually be a 4 hour epic and it entails their internationl battle in fast food big business against their evel nemissis'... the Hamburgler and ronald mcdonald! Yeah, it's that much anticipated sequel to Austalia... only this time the bazz will call it "Faraway Downs: THe hamburger Beef strikes back!"...yeah, the orb has a fantastic role model for such a magnaificantly successful career.

maclen - that "epic" commercial for Ginger Ale I'm sure will pay her millions and will never air in this country. That gig is most certainly about money, just like the Nintendo, Omega watch and any other endorsement deal she has done outside of the US.

I do, however, agree about Keith going from drug to drug. He still isn't standing on his own, and until that day comes, I doubt the good lyrics & music will either.

I would be interested in numbers of people attending the concerts, say the ones for LPATWCT, vs DG, and I'm being kind, because you know if we did this sort of comparison between BH and DG, it would be much worse, so do a control test, UM, in the middle of summer when the concert season is at it's peak, and I think you should do it when it's not a "piggy back" concert with Chesney.
Does he have a contract that he has committed to a certain number of albums and promotions that he must do before he retires? Why does he still do this if he is so obvious miserable?

I have only heard 2 songs off of this album so I cannot say how much of it I like but I do really like ST...

...but it certainly is not the stuff of BH or GR that is for sure...so, I do agree with you here nota:

I wonder if the KUNK portfolio took such a hit in this recession that she's becoming financially desperate.
Either that, or she really LOVES Indian ginger ale...

(I wonder if KUNK paid for the Rolls or has been gifted with it...)

That gig with Woody will not pay her her usual fee. Woody plays it very close to the vest.
